To our students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors, clients, and friends, thank you for your unwavering dedication to – and support of – Penn Vet’s mission this past year.
Wherever you may be this holiday season, we wish you a safe, healthy, and happy new year.
Martin Winter, G’76, W’76, believes the University of Pennsylvania is positioned to lead “just about every intersection of research and practice there is.”
As a philanthropist and vice chair of Penn Vet’s Board of Advisors, Winter has long followed and supported the cancer research of Dr. Nicola Mason, The Paul A. James and Charles A. Gilmore Endowed Chair Professorship within the Department of Clinical Sciences and Advanced Medicine, and Ellen Puré, PhD, Director, Penn Vet Cancer Center, both of whom collaborate closely with the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.
But earlier this fall, intrigued by the work happening across the University in infectious disease, he and his wife established The Martin E. Winter and Pamela Winter Infectious Disease Fellowship Fund to support the School’s new Institute for Infectious and Zoonotic Diseases (IIZD).

As a vector for diseases like malaria, which kills nearly one child every minute, #mosquitoes are more than backyard nuisances, especially in developing countries.
Understanding and subverting the insect’s role as a host for animal and human disease is the life’s work of Dr. Michael Povelones, assistant professor of Pathobiology.
While Povelones’s lab on Penn Vet’s Philadelphia campus studies “the most species-rich group of animals on the planet,” his office is also filled with the dangerous insect...or at least the art and object kind.

Colonel Eric Lombardini, C’93, G’01, V’01, has lived or worked in 70 countries, on all continents except Antarctica, as a veterinary corps officer rising through the ranks of the U.S. Army.
Board certified in veterinary pathology and veterinary preventive medicine, Lombardini now is stationed in Bangkok, Thailand, where he serves as director of the Armed Forces Research Institute of Medical Sciences (AFRIMS), the Department of Defense’s largest medical research institute outside of the U.S.
But, serving on the front lines of infectious disease wasn’t exactly the path Lombardini set on as an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania studying diplomatic history, with a focus on Africa and the Middle East.

‼️ Important Message Regarding Pennsylvania Budget-Related Change.org Petition ‼️
It has come to our attention that a Change.org petition – originally created in 2017 in response to the Commonwealth’s proposed budget at that time – is actively being shared across social media and garnering signatures and attention.
Please be aware that this petition IS NOT current and DOES NOT accurately reflect the current budgetary standing of Penn Vet within the Commonwealth.
As a vital partner in Pennsylvania’s animal health and agriculture industries, we greatly value our current upstanding relationships with our state’s lawmakers and ask that our fans and followers DO NOT share or engage with this petition, which is now five years old.
We thank you for your continued support and appreciation of Penn Vet New Bolton Center.
